Mme nte ke iphitlhe mo nageng go fitlha mantsiboeng a letsatsi la boraro. 6Fa rraago a ka ntlhoka, o bolele o re: ‘Dafita o ikopile mo go nna gore a tabogele kwa Betleheme motseng wa ga gabo. Gonne go na le tlhabelo ya ngwaga gona ya losika lwetsho.’ 7Fa a ka bua jaana a re: ‘Go siame!’ foo motlhanka wa gago o na le kagiso. Mme fa a galefa thata, o itse gore o setse a ikaeletse tatlhego ya me. 8Jaanong direla motlhanka wa gago ka bopelotlhomogi, gonne o tsentse motlhanka wa gago mo kgolaganong ya Morena nao. Mme fa molato o le teng mo go nna, a ke bolawe ke wena. O tla bo o nkisetsang kwa go rraago?”
9Mme Jonathane a re: “O se ka wa re jalo! Kana fa ke lemoga tota gore rre o ikaeletse go go isa mo tatlhegong, ga nka ke ka tlhoka go go itsise.”
10Mme Dafita a botsa Jonathane a re: “Ke mang yo o tla mpegelang, fa rraago a go fetola ka tse di thata?”
11Ke fa Jonathane a raya Dafita a re: “Tlaya, re tswele kwa nageng!” Ba tswela kwa nageng ka bobedi jwa bone. 12Jonathane a ba a raya Dafita a re: “A Morena, Modimo wa Iseraele, e nne mosupi; ke tla botsolotsa rre kamoso mo nakong e le ka moso o mongwe; fa ke fitlhela go siametse Dafita foo ke tla roma kwa go wena, ke go senolela jalo. 13A Morena a direle Jonathane jaana a mo okeletse jaana: Fa go siametse rre go digela bosula mo go wena ruri ke tla go senolela jalo, ke go naya tsela gore o tsamae ka kagiso. Mme a Morena a nne nao jaaka a ne a na le rre. 14Ka thapelo, fa ke sa ntse ke phela ke kopa gore o ntirele ka bopelotlhomogi jwa Morena. Mme fa nka swa 15o se ka wa tlosa bopelotlhomogi jwa gago mo lapeng la me ka bosakhutleng le e seng fa Morena a nyeletsa baba ba ga Dafita ka go latelana ga bone, a ba tlosa mo lefatsheng.” 16Jonathane a dira kgolagano jalo le lelapa la ga Dafita, a re: “Morena o tla busolosa baba ba ga Dafita.”
17Jaanong Jonathane a ikanisa Dafita gape ka lorato lo a mo ratang ka lone; gonne o ne a mo rata ka pelo yotlhe. 18Jonathane a ba a mo raya a re: “Kamoso ngwedi o tsoga o rogwa. O tla tlhokwa fa o batlwa mo mannong a gago. 19Mme ka letsatsi la boraro o fologe ka pele, o tle kwa felong fa o neng o iphitlhile teng maloba, o nne fa fatshe fa thoko ga lefika la Asele. 20Jaanong ke tla hulela metsu e le meraro ka fa lotlhakoreng lwa lone jaaka e kete ke hula sengwe. 21Bona, ke tla roma mosimane ke re: ‘Yaa o batle metsu.’ Jaanong fa ke raya mosimane ke re: ‘Bona, metsu e ka kwano ga gago, e tsee!’ gona o ka tla, gonne ka bophelo jwa Morena o mo kagisong; ga go na kotsi epe. 22Mme fa ke raya lekau jaana ke re: ‘Bona, metsu e kwa pele ga gago!’ gona o tsamae, gonne Morena o tla bo a go neile tsela. 23Mme fa e le lefoko le re buileng mmogo, Morena o fa gare ga rona bosakhutheng.” 24Ke fa Dafita a iphitlha kwa nageng.
Ya re ka la ngwedi o o rogilweng, kgosi ya nna fa bojelong go ja. 25Kgosi ya nna mo mannong a yona jaaka ka gale mo mannong a a fa loboteng, Jonathane a lebaganye nae. Abenere a nna fa thoko ga Saule. Manno a ga Dafita a tlhoka mong wa ona. 26Ka letsatsi leo Saule a se ka a bua sepe; gonne o ne a gopola gore gongwe o dirafaletswe ke maila mangwe; go gongwe ga a itsheka, mme a ise a itshekisiwe. 27Mme ya re kamoso ka letsatsi la bobedi la ngwedi o o rogilweng manno a ga Dafita a tlhoka mong wa ona gape, Saule a botsa Jonathane morwawe a re: “Ke ka ntlha ya eng fa morwa Isai a se ka a tla dijong maabane le kajeno?”
28Jonathane a araba Saule a re: “Dafita o ikopile thata mo go nna go ka ya kwa Betleheme, 29a re: ‘A ko o nte ke tsamae, gonne re na le tlhabelo ya losika kwa motseng wa ga etsho. E bile nkgonne o mpiditse ka esi. Jaanong he, fa ke bonye bopelotlhomogi mo matlhong a gago, nte ke itlhaganele ke ye go bona bomogolole.’ Ke ka moo a se kang a tla bojelong jwa kgosi.”
30Ke fa Saule a tukela Jonathane bogale a mo raya a re: “Wena morwa borukhutlhi jo bo maswe! A o ithaya o re, ga ke itse fa o itlhaoletse morwa Isai? Mme e tla nna ditlhong tsa gago le ditlhong tsa mmele wa ga mmaago. 31Gonne ka malatsi otlhe a morwa Isai o phelang ka ona mo lefatsheng ga o kitla o tlhomamisiwa le e seng go dirwa kgosi. Jaanong ka re, roma o mo tlise kwano go nna, gonne o tshwanetse go bolawa.”
32Jonathane a araba Saule rraagwe a re: “O tla bo a bolaelwang? O dirile eng?”
33Ke fa Saule a mo konopa ka lerumo, a re o a mo tlhaba. Jonathane a lemoga jalo fa rragwe a feditse pelo go bolaya Dafita. 34Jaanong Jonathane a nanoga, a tlogela bojelo ka bogale jo bo tukang; a se ka a ja dijo ka letsatsi leo la bobedi la ngwedi o o rogilweng; gonne o ne a tshwenyegela Dafita, ka rraagwe a mo rogakile. 35Ya re mo mosong Jonathane a tswela kwa nageng jaaka a dumalanye le Dafita, a na le mosimanyana. 36A raya mosimane wa gagwe a re: “Siana o batle metsu e ke tla e fulang.” Ya re mosimane a taboga, a fula motsu, a o fetisa ka ene. 37Ya re mosimane a fitlha fa motsu o wetseng teng o Jonathane a o hudileng, Jonathane a tlhaeletsa mosimane a re: “Kana motsu o kwa pele ga gago!” 38Jonathane a ba a tlhaeletsa mosimane a re: “Dira ka pele, o itlhaganele, o se ka wa ema.” Ke fa mosimane wa ga Jonathane a nopa metsu, a ba a boela kwa go mongwagwe. 39Mosimane a bo a sa itse sepe, tumelano ya bo e le sephiri sa ga Jonathane le Dafita fela. 40Jaanong Jonathane a neela mosimane yo o neng a na nae dibolai tsa gagwe, a mo laela a re: “Tsamaya o di ise kwa motseng.”
41Ya re mosimane a ntse a tsamaya go ya kwa gae, Dafita a nanoga, a tswa ka fa ntlheng ya borwa, a wela fa fatshe ka sefatlhego, a inama gararo; ba atlana, ba lela mmogo; la bofelo Dafita a lela mo go fetisang. 42Jaanong Jonathane a raya Dafita a re: “Tsamaya ka kagiso! Kana re ikanne ka bobedi jwa rona ka leina la Morena ra re: ‘Morena o tla nna fa gare ga rona le fa gare ga losika lwa me le lwa gago ka bosakhutleng.’ ” 43Ke fa Dafita a nanoga a tsamaya, Jonathane ene a boela kwa motseng.
